The abstraction was done in April 2020 covid times. We were the only ones in there. Appropriate for that time period. Every visit has been awesome. I never feel judged that my son or daughter scream or are scared. The dentists, staff and hygienists are friendly and understanding. They are patient with my children to help them understand what they are doing and why teeth cleaning is important. Can't recommend this Office enough for regular cleaning or other more in depth teeth needs.

I have a litany of complaints, but this was my final straw;…read more My son was scheduled for sedation to get his cavities filled. For at least 18 months prior we had been told all they could do was temporary fillings until they could do X-rays. We were told that X-rays would be done under sedation/at the time of treatment. In early May, we scheduled the appointment for sedation in late August. The day of the appointment, we arrived 10 minutes early, were called back after about 10 minutes in the waiting room, and then sat in the exam room waiting for about 30 more minutes. The doctor arrived and informed us that because there were no X-rays done, they would not be doing work that day and we would have to schedule out for December. The dentist we saw at this most recent appointment was very polite and apologetic, but we will not be returning.

Being a product of a horrible dentists during my childhood that have caused me to have a dental…read morephobia, I believe the BEST thing you can do for your child is to provide for a positive experience with the dentist. I live over an hour away from this place. Does that tell you anything? I think the staff is wonderful with the kids. They laid the groundwork with my son to not have a fear of the dentist and has kept his teeth in great shape despite his addiction to marshmallows (prizes for potty training). The dentists are grads from UPENN (currently the top dental school if not one of the top 3) and everyone we have worked (great hygienists and assistants) with have made this place awesome- Which is more than I can say about those Chain Pediatric dental offices that employ dentists who are not pediatric dentists at all..... Unlike at KOOL smiles or whatever it is called, they wont "YELL" at you child to calm them down by scaring them. They use this awesome reward system (token to get a prize for being good) at the end to pick a toy in one of the dispensers. ALSO, the cute ship for kids to play in at the corner of the waiting room - PERFECT. Kept my kids busy for my 5 min wait (which is forever in kid time) As for scheduling, I don't mind scheduling in advance for the appointments I need (Sorry, Angela C.), but when I've needed to reschedule, they were fine with it as long as it wasn't a last-minute thing (I changed it a week or two out). My son hasn't needed it yet, but they offer DVDs for kids to watch during their procedure...(healthy teeth thanks to this place) The office is a building shared with an orthodontist on the other side (uhm.. can we say perfect transition to the tween years?) the ONLY drawback is the distance... but it is worth it for us.

The staff is friendly and the doctor who was there (Dr. Kim), was awesome. I like the new Dr as well but Dr. Kim definitely made an impression on my boys and I. I recommend Tendercare to anyone looking for a friendly, and great place to take their kids for all dental needs.

I must say that I was very impressed and it met my expectations, and beyond. When we first walked in, the front desk reception sent us to two sinks in the back to wash our hands, as it is their practice for everyone to wash their hands upon entering and to also wears masks. We came around Christmas time and Santa was there taking free pictures with the children and the center was decorated festively. You can tell they really enjoy making the children happy and feel welcomed. There were children crying during their cleaning, but they have many strategies to attempt to calm them. For example, they painted my daughters nails during her cleaning to distract her. They also gave her a teddy bear to clean it's teeth. As well as even though she was not comfortable laying the normal way on the medical bed, and preferred to lay sideways, the dentist followed her and cleaned her teeth where ever she was calm and comfortable. The staff is also diverse culturally. There is a free parking lot out front with ample spaces. So far, I will be back and this will be our pediatric dentist.

He had his teeth pulled in the past so he is terrified coming to the dentist so now he screams and tantrums and the medical assistants and Dr. Holmes knows my son well and she is very good with him and that is the reason I take him there.

They look at us everytime we come in with stares and annoyed, like this is Pediatric dentist, you should be use to kids screaming . This is everytime I take my son and the only reason I keep taking him back is because of Dr. Holmes and the dental assistants.

It does ease our mind to know they walk her over when her appointments are over, because my kid would sit right over there until I came to get her otherwise. So them walking her over makes her feel safe. Each visit we enjoy the personable exchanges we have with all team members. They are always friendly, informative and most of all very welcoming to the kids. My youngest son just started his dental appointments and I was. It sure how he'd do. I was pleasantly surprised at how well he did. They make the experience for kids go so easy. Timely, accommodating and a fun experience every time. We do miss seeing the beautiful bird they once had. I love coming here with my kids.

I scheduled an appointment for my daughter at this location, and while the booking process was…read morequick and easy and the front desk staff were friendly, that's where the positives ended. My daughter is 13, and I'm encouraging her independence, so when she preferred to go back alone, I waited in the lobby. The hygienist called her in, clearly aware I was her parent. After the cleaning, the dentist came in (walking right past me in the waiting area) to complete the exam and review the X-rays. It was determined my daughter had a cavity. At no point did either the hygienist or dentist speak with me directly. Instead, paperwork was handed off to the receptionist, who briefly told me my daughter would need to see a different dentist and gave a referral. That was the entirety of the communication. I chose not to follow their recommendation and instead sought care with another provider where communication was prioritized and we felt more supported. Clear communication is essential in healthcare, especially when treating children. Unfortunately, this office fell short. I would not recommend.

There was a lot of work to do, but he made it absolutely stress-free working on my fillings and crowns. After he left the dental clinic that he was working at and until he opened his own practice I remained completely dentist-less. I did go to a dentist once but it was a mediocre experience, and I would never go there again. Couple months later I found Dr. Yazdan's clinic on Google Maps and was so relieved that my dentist problems are over! Even though he is located way further from me than the clinic he used to work at, I'd rather drive to his clinic than go to somebody I don't trust.
